backup vmware .vdmk

Hi,

Does anyone know how to backup vmware esxi vms?
Does CCloud backup vmware machines?
Can it backup running vm machines?

No sure but I don’t think you can make a consistent backup of a running VM. You’d need to create a snapshot and back that up I think. Or to suspend the VM and then back it up.

I did try using Windows volume shadow copy via NT backup, but VMware would not run the restored VM

Best wishes
